Story

Curving blobs of lime green, magenta, white, black, and blue stack and overlap across the sheet, forming an abstract scene suggestive of water and shoreline shapes cut from colored paper. This pochoir print, plate XVIII, comes from the illustrated book Jazz, dated 1947. Henri Matisse (1869–1954), a French artist associated with Fauvism, created it; the piece is held at the Eskenazi Museum of Art.
